White cyc is a stage background used to make the illusion of limitless space or sky. It is superb for video and still photography allowing special effects to be added to the image. The main advantage of a white filming stage is the ability of making the background nearly disappear creating all kinds of possibilities for lighting, and allows for the cameraman’s subject being filmed to be center of stage.

Today’s technology makes it possible for a line of white cyclorama products to be developed to meet the growing demand for white cyc backgrounds in a multitude of environments and applications. This makes it possible for a photographer to have his own white stage in his very own studio without the requirement for leasing a studio with a white stage. The ideas of simple assemble and smaller white stage backgrounds came from the founding father of Pro Cyc name Fritz. Fritz built his dream white studio in Portland Oregon. The investment of cash and time were great and construction workers worked for weeks building the studio out of plywood and drywall. During construction Fritz kept asserting, “There has to be an easier way to build a white cyclorama studio?”

Fritz was given his chance to test out his speculation while building his second white stage background in Portland after his first white cyc background suffered water damage while filming a special effect. Fritz’s second white cyc studio is still being use in Portland Oregon today and is being leased out to customers like : Freightliner, Nike, Adidas, and Steinway among many others using the flexible studio. The studio has been repainted about 400 times since opening, but the walls still remain smooth as the first day they were installed.

The revolutionary patented molds developed by Fritz makes his company Pro Cyc one of the planet’s leading makers of modular white cyc background systems. Pro Cyc’s research and development is consistently developing new ideas and products to meet the continually changing needs and demands of today’s media and high-tech industries.

Pro Cyc works closely with their buyers making sure they’re achieving the most practical answer for their needs . Pro Cyc’s engineering can custom design white cyc sets to meet the specialized and demanding wishes of their clients. In 2007 pro Cyc enter into the personal studio market with anew product line reducing cyc technology down to the size of a desktop, which shattered the barrier of catalog photography.
